    Hey,

    I own the domain m0a.com and figured i'd throw something on it that im imterested in its an aviation blog that I've been running for less than 3 weeks and have already hit PR 2. Sometimes the Adsense ads don't always load up dont know whats up with that but let me hear your thoughts! Ideas very welcome!

    I like the template, but noticed that there are no curved corners on the main content boxes or the boxes in the footer - is this intentional?

    Like littlefish has said there are no curved corners on the
    main content box's or the footer, you should change them
    so they have curved corner, and it will help it all blend together

    Also I dont like the green background for the post heading,
    maybe just have green text and not a green background?

    hmmm I never really thought about adding curved corners!?! Good idea it would help it blend better. Anyone else have suggestions?

    I like the color scheme and overall layout...the article titles bother me though. What's with the gradient green background? I'm with lumkin, just keep it basic text, green, and no bg. It would read better that way.

    The sharp edges on the main content and footer area could use the rounded edges like was previously suggested. It would help make the site more cohesive.

    Otherwise, nice site.

    The site needs aviation related photographs on the header design so its obvious what the site is about at first glance.

    Photos make a blog. Especially airplanes since they're cool to look at :).

    I like your blog, but considering there has not been a PR update in the last 3 weeks your blog did not pick up any new PR.

    There were othere sites on m0a.com as far back as Sept. 2001 and as late as Feb. 2006 so no doubt this is where the PR came from.

    Looks alright, agree with 8everything needs a good aviation header image I'd also make a M0A logo....not to sure on the colour scheme maybe you could do some research on the diiferent airways colour schemes and incorporate them. Would make it look more professional. Also if you are enabling your readers to click on the images let them see it in a bigger image (you can monetize the expanded image page:) .....Good luck with your site!

    Thats the strange thing when I purchased it it was PR 0 now just yesterday it jumped to PR 2! I don't think there was an update because I know everyone on DP would be going crazy if so :)

    Thanks for everyones input im going to work on designing a new header today!

    Let me know if you have any other suggestions
